Hello all,
An update, I backed out of buying the Black Rhino 22x9.5 Pondora Silver Wheels and Nitto NT420S 305/40-22 Tires used from a seller.
Decided to look at new instead for a number of reasons.
From two choices I've basically made, with both the same model wheels-tires, but different sizes for the '97 Tahoe from Discount Tire Direct.
The exact same brand new tire-wheel combo above shipped free, lugs, stems, replacement warrantee included at $2123.00. Or.........
Four BR Pondora Silver in 20x8.5", with four Nitto NT420S 275/55-20, with all the same lugs, stems, warrantee, at $1682.00 shipped.
At this point, I do have some concerns about going with the larger 22" wheel-tire, with the possibility of fender-fenderwell, or suspension component rub, and then a possible later need of Torsion Bar Leveling Keys, Lift Blocks, the whole smear, etc to make such properly work without any worry of rub.
The other is of course the additional weight, and also the additional cost.
Other brain farts is the larger tire-wheel combo offering a harsher ride as well with a slighter skinnier aspect ratio of the tires.
